Abstract
Though the coronavirus virus attacks humans' physical aspects, the psychological consequences of this epidemic should not be overlooked. However, the negative effects of the coronavirus epidemic on the rise in psychological disorders are still unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the involvement of COVID-related fear in the levels of anxiety disorder and depression disorder, exploring this via a sample of participants from the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (N = 189). The results indicated that there are significant positive correlations between fear of COVID-19, generalised anxiety disorder, and major depressive disorder, with differential aspects across levels of both disorders. Accordingly, the findings revealed a positive relationship between fear of COVID-19 and mild to moderate levels of anxiety disorder. Furthermore, a mild level of depressive disorder was associated with a fear of COVID-19. Finally, the current study came up with a few recommendations and suggestions.
Keywords: Fear of COVID-19, Generalised anxiety disorder, Major depressive disorder.
